Sorry about turning a thread into a political debate!!
Nothing worse than talking politics on a football board
So here is my knew thread
The Crows have to find a new name, colours, song, logo etc etc
(we’ll just say some American Company sued and won saying they owned the rights)
what would your new team look like (and sound I suppose)
anyone who mentions Port Adelaide in colour/name/sound etc needs to be banned :D

well mate - I've had a couple of shandies so my mental capacity has diminished to that of a super-intelligent Pap lover.
but I'll give it a crack anyway !!
Blue Green and Yellow/Gold - similar to the Aussie jumper we play those lilly legged Irish in. - - I quite like that jumper.
I'd call them the sharks - not because of current affairs - but because I didn't mind that suggestion back in 1990.
Blue would tie in with the shark thing

I would give the team the name the Scorpions (although sharks sounds pretty good)
Go with all green with yellow numbers maybe a AFC ensign on the shoulder. I also like the idea of the numbers on the chest at the front (either like the aussies to give you some relevance or your actual team number)
And I reckon I could compose a song to the music they used to play for the Army (mozart) anything would be better than the current bloody song
damn i made it too hard for myself !!

I love everything about the AFC and would hate for anything to change but if it did have to change I would like to be called the Sharks, not sure on the colours, for me, it would have to Blue Red and Gold, if not then it doesnt bother me what it is because it doesnt mean anything.

Ditto - would have to be Sharks
I cant imagine the mighty Crows running out in anything but the tri-colours though

Name: Adelaide West Lakers or the West Lakes Waves
Colours: Blue shorts; the jumper would be sky blue (Sturts blue) with a dark blue sash (like Richmond and Essendon) but that sounds like Carlton so ******** that idea off.
lets keep with the tri colours of the AFC

The 1812 overture by Tchaikovsky - you really want a piece of music that was written about how the russian Winter defeated Napolean? (great piece though)
If we go along with using this piece of music then we should be called the cannons as the 1812 is the only piece of music written for canons and we could time it that the boys run out at the right time as the canons go off in the music :D
oh dear this is silly :p
I'd call them The Adelaide Dragons.
Their colours would be either black, red and gold or green, red and gold.

Would hate to change & wouldn't let these Americans get their way. Sue them back!

It'd have to be the cows........yes I'm back. No-one is safe-again :)
Hope you all had a good christmas, and capitalist, while I disagree with your political views, I chose not to reply as it's "not the place".

i would seriously not have minded if it was the adelaide lions.
That way we could have JB trotting around at CHF, apparently they have another 'star' coming through too.
nice ring to that....... adelaide lions

it would be good to get more history in the club. but i thought the crows were because of the croweaters
